-----------------------------------

it is used to see if a string in contrained withing another string and if so, returns the position where it starts.


put index("compsci", "sci")

outputs 5 since "sci" starts on 5th character of "compsci"

it also works the other way:

if index("1234567890", "1") not=0 then
put "its a digit"
else
put "its not a digit"
end if
